THE COLD WAR

ANALYSIS:

In January, 1954, the new US secretary of state, John Foster Dulles, had outlined a new American military policy. The United States, he warned, would meet communist aggression by 'MASSIVE RETALIATION' with nuclear weapons. The United States, Dulles said, would strikes back - "at places and with means of our own choosing." (p. 618c The World Book Encyclopedia Ci - Cz Volume 4)

Nagsimula ang nuclear arms race habang Cold War mula noong August 29, 1949 nang ang Soviet Union tested an atomic bomb. Dati eh bukod-tanging ang United States lamang ang marunong gumawa at magpasabog ng atomic bomb, kagaya ng pinasabog sa Japan na nagdulot ng malawak na pinsala sa Hiroshima at Nagasaki noong WW-2.

Ngunit nagkaroon ng malaking pagbabago (the character of the cold war) noong mid-1960's porke ang demokratikong United States at komunistang Russia, na kapwa sila merong nakaimbak na nuclear weapons, kapwa sila meron ding antimissile defense system, realized that there would be NO VICTOR in all-out nuclear war.

Sa aming palagay eh ito ang dahilan (NO VICTOR) matapos na magdeklara ang komunistang China ng WW-3, kung bakit tila BANTULOT ngayon ang PLA na unang bombahin ang US Military habang masigasig ang military drill ng kanilang 5 submarines (Ohio-class; Columbia-class; 955 Borei-class; 667 BDRM Delfin-class; and, 885 M Yasen-class) sa ilalim ng South China Sea, dahil umiiral pa rin ang naunang warning noon 1954 ni US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles? - "MASSIVE RETALIATION WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS" - at kung magka-gano'n nga'y totooong NO VICTOR IN ALL-OUT NUCLEAR WAR!!!
